Vermont Tapioca Pudding Recipe

Being from Vermont, I believe that just about everything tastes better when you add real Vermont maple syrup. There is just no comparison. Treat your holiday guests to the delicious taste of Vermont Tapioca Pudding. This creamy tapioca pudding recipe has Vermont maple syrup added to it and then it is topped with walnuts that have been coated with more Vermont maple syrup. Dessert doesn’t get much better than this.

While the pudding is chilling, line a cookie sheet with wax paper & spray with non stick spray.

In a small pan, mix the walnuts, 1 tbsp Vermont maple syrup and cinnamon. Heat over medium low heat until most of the syrup is evaporated.

Spread the nuts on the sprayed wax paper and place in the freezer for 15 minutes until cool.

Crumble the walnuts over the top of the pudding & serve.

This tapioca pudding recipe can be made ahead and the nuts frozen until serving time. When you’re ready to serve dessert, just remove the nuts from the freezer and crumble them on top of the tapioca pudding. No one needs to know you prepared the dessert that morning to save time.

I love how the additions to this recipe have made it so unique. I have to agree as there is nothing better than Vermont maple syrup. Vermont is on my bucket list of states I want to visit. Thanks so much for this recipe.

Ellen did such a great job on this post! I love the idea of adding mix ins to the tapioca pudding and have heard that Vermont’s maple syrup is the best. I will have to try to add some to my next tapioca dessert!
